Running stored procedure from Excel - sql

Question

I am trying to run a stored procedure from Excel. I know how to do it without using dynamic dates but I need the date range to be dynamic.
Sub TestStoredProcedure()
Dim CServer As String
Dim CDatabase As String
Dim CLogon As String
Dim CPass As String
Dim StartDate As Date
Dim EndDate As Date
Dim TStartDate As String
Dim TEndDate As String
CServer = "111111" ' Your server name here
CDatabase = "111111" ' Your database name here
CLogon = "11111111" ' your logon here
CPass = "111111" ' your password here
Dim Cmd1 As New ADODB.Command
Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim intTemp As Integer
Set Cmd1 = New ADODB.Command
Cmd1.ActiveConnection = cn
Cmd1.CommandText = "callstatisticsbyQ"
Cmd1.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
Cmd1.Parameters.Refresh
Cmd1.Parameters(0).Value = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A1")
Cmd1.Parameters(1).Value = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A2")
Cmd1.Parameters(2).Value = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A3")
Set rs = Cmd1.Execute()
rs.Open Cmd1
Worksheets("Procedure Export").Range("A1").CopyFromRecordset rs
Call DumpSP("prcGetData", "", "", Worksheets("Procedure Export").Range("A1"))
End Sub
I get an error saying something about user defined type not defined.

Answer 1

To use ADO you click Tools->references in the VBA IDE & tick "Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects" - preferably the highest version thereof.
Additionally you use cn as the connection but its not defined in that sub (assuming its not global) & you will may need to Set Cmd1.ActiveConnection = cn.
Also take a look at this, it defines the input (adParaminput) paramaters in advance rather than using .Refresh which is pretty inefficient (takes a trip to the server)
Update for example:
rem for create procedure callstatisticsbyQ (#i int, #c varchar(10)) as select 1234;
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim Cmd1 As ADODB.Command
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
Set Cmd1 = New ADODB.Command
Set Cmd1 = New ADODB.Command
cn.Open "Provider=SQLNCLI10;Server=1.2.3.4;Database=x;Uid=x; Pwd=x;"
Set Cmd1.ActiveConnection = cn
Cmd1.CommandText = "callstatisticsbyQ"
Cmd1.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
Cmd1.Parameters.Append Cmd1.CreateParameter("p1", adInteger, adParamInput, , Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A1"))
Cmd1.Parameters.Append Cmd1.CreateParameter("p2", adVarChar, adParamInput, 20, Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A2"))
Set rs = Cmd1.Execute()
MsgBox rs(0)
rs.Close
cn.Close
